Answer: 0.1840

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial probability formula :-

P(X)=^nC_x\ p^x(1-p)^{n-x}, here n is the number total of trials , p is the probability of getting success in each trial and P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trial.

Given : The probability of the community favored building a police substation in their neighborhood = 0.64

If 14 citizens are chosen, then the probability that exactly 8 of them favor the building of the police substation will be :-

P(8)={14}^C_{8}\ (0.64)^{8}(1-0.64)^{14-8}\\\\=\dfrac{14!}{8!6!}\times(0.64)^8(0.36)^{6}\\\\0.183996740126\approx0.1840

Hence, the probability that exactly 8 of them favor the building of the police substation = 0.1840

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

11.3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the length of one of the boxes.

a^2+b^2=c^2\\1^2+1^2=c^2\\1+1=c^2\\2 = c^2\\\\\sqrt{2} = c\\ c = 1.414...

Let's simplify c down to 1.41.

Now, there are 8 of these little boxes for the perimeter, let's multiply.

1.41\cdot8=11.28

That can be simplified to the nearest tenth - 11.3

Hope this helped!

Nine more than half of a number is 21
pogonyaev
I assume you're looking for the number:
0.5n + 9 = 21
- 9
0.5n = 12
÷ 0.5
n = 24
So the beginning number is 24, hope this helps!
